Victorian Railways departmental wagons (original) (raw)

The Victorian Railways used a variety of former traffic wagons around depots and for specific construction, maintenance and similar tasks. Very few of these vehicles were specially constructed from scratch, often instead recycling components or whole wagon bodies and frames from old vehicles that had been withdrawn from normal service as life-expired or superseded by a better design. This page covers wagons used for each of the primary tasks, with links back to the source vehicle in their appropriate page category.
